JADD Project Childcare Service

JADD Project Childcare Service is a community‑based creche located at 24 Jobstown Road, Jobstown, Dublin. Established as part of the wider JADD organisation in 1996, the service was created to support families affected by drug dependency, offering a safe, free childcare environment for their children. The centre provides a nurturing, drug‑free space where early years development is prioritised through play‑based learning and age‑appropriate activities, helping to stabilise families and promote a positive routine for young children. The childcare provision is integrated with JADD’s broader family support programmes, including low‑threshold support, counselling, and rehabilitation services. Flexible opening times—including weekend sessions and evening family‑support hours—allow families to access care that fits their needs. The service works closely with the HSE and local community partners to ensure the health, safety, and wellbeing of every child, fostering a supportive atmosphere that encourages both social and emotional growth.
